The Nurese's Report The report of the nurse, pre- sented at the meeting is as fol- lows: 1 take pleasure in presenting to you the annual ' report of the Whitby Branch of the Victorian Order of Nurses. Though the past year has been rather a trying one in many ways owing to the great lack of employment amongst the citizens of Whitby, still 1 ust admit that there has been quite an advancement along education- al lines in all branches of the work. Our free bedside nursing visits, of course, are very much increas- ed, compared with previous years. The Well Baby Conference is in a very flourishing condition, and is much appreciated by the others. 67 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company policyholders received care during 1931. And at this point it would seem fitting to ex- press an appreciation of the co- opgration always received from the officials of the Head Office of this Company in Ottawa; and from the agent here in Whitby. Our nursing service in connection with the Metropolitan Life In- surance Company {is greatly valued, both as a source of rev- enue and a means of getting in touch with many cases that oth- erwise might no: reach us. 71 school inspections were carried out, 3,377 children been examin- ed throughout the year for com- municable diseases, personal c.eanliness, and many physical detects. The homes of some of these children were visited in or- der to seek 'the co-operation of parents in having defects correct- The principal and teachers of the public schools gave co-opera- tion in every way, reporting ab- sentees and cases which required inspection, etc, by teaching health in class rooms. The Health posters are most valuable, as thev tend to stamp on the child's mind health lessons which talks 'pil to impress. In conclusion, I should like to shank the member: of the local committee for their co-operation, the doctors for their supprt, and szny who have in any way as- pisted in carrying out the aims of the Victorian Order of Nurses for Canada, namely--* The Pro- nqtion of Health and the Preven- tion of Disease." (8gd.) Elizabeth H. Patterson, Nurse in Charge.

Chap- man of Pickering received the ap- pointment by a vote of 13 to 10. The other nominee was Reeve John McRae, of Beaverton, proposed by Reeve Jackson of Whitby.

Expected When County Council " Convenes The quegtion of a dew valuation of the county for assessment and taxation purposes will be one of the most important items to be consid- ered by the County Council when it convenes again next week. The recommendation of the 1931 Coun- «il was that the bylaw which put in force the present assessment for a second five-year period be repealed, and provision made for the appoint- ment of new valuators. The Town- ship of Reach feels that it is too highly assessed and it is from that municipality that the move for a new valuation comes. A merry bat- tle is anticipated, as the Council klivided on the matter. If the de- cision is made that the present as- sessment stand as decreed by last' years' council, then the county may find itself with an appeal to the judge on its hands. The cost of a new valuation at this time would be easily one thou- sand dollars, and it is in the inter- ests of economy, that Reeve Jack- son, of Whitby, and others favor leaving well enough alone at the present time, The opponents of new valuation point out that there is no- thing to be gained from it at the present' time, also that the Town- ship of Reach cannot show that it is called upon to bear more than its share of the county tax burden.
